Recently I listened to a podcast on Optimize with Brian Johnson. One of the key takeaways from the talk was applying a 20-minute rule to any goal or task you find too big or you’re procrastinating on. The idea is that if you eliminate distractions and stimuli like email and Internet browsing and give your full focus to the goal for twenty minutes, good and even great things will happen.

And my senior friends teach me what may seem like a big deal in the moment is really insignificant when you consider life is a journey about winning and learning, not winning and losing. I am grateful to everyone in my life for the generous gifts of unconditional love, support and grace.
